Installation

Installation hint: replace old sge_shepherd & sgepasswd binaries with the new ones. Remember to back up the old binaries, and test the patches before deploying them in production environments. You should back up your cluster configuration & job data (and stop running jobs) before installing patches.

We have in the past installed Grid Engine patches *without* stopping the whole cluster. However, it is not an officially supported method, and use it at your own risk!
